ABET Accreditation

Assuring a Quality Education

UA College of Engineering undergraduate degree programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org.

(Environmental Engineering will be eligible to seek accreditation during AY 2018-19. Architectural Engineering, the College’s newest program, will be eligible to seek accreditation once students begin to graduate from that program.)

ABET accreditation provides assurance that a college or university program meets the quality standards of the profession for which that program prepares graduates.

ABET accredits programs, not institutions. It provides specialized accreditation for postsecondary programs within degree-granting institutions already recognized by national or regional institutional accreditation agencies or national education authorities worldwide.
